A found-footage folk horror thriller that uses suburban unease and documentary ambiguity to explore hidden cult activity and ritualistic danger lurking beneath a veneer of normalcy.

Stranded in the suburbs, student filmmaker Chloe begins to make a documentary about her family's troubled past. Whilst filming, she and best friend Ed, witness an hysterical girl appearing to escape from a neighbour's house, only to be quickly dragged back inside again. Is she a recovering drug addict like the neighbours say? Or is she really in danger from those who claim to be caring for her?
